TL;DR: An overview of the current state-of-the-art in silicon nanophotonic ring resonators is presented in this paper, where the basic theory of ring resonance is discussed and applied to the peculiarities of submicron silicon photonic wire waveguides: the small dimensions and tight bend radii, sensitivity to perturbations and the boundary conditions of the fabrication processes.

TL;DR: In this paper, a silicon-organic hybrid slot waveguide with a strong optical nonlinearity is demonstrated to perform ultrafast all-optical demultiplexing of high-bit-rate data streams.

TL;DR: This work proposes a label-free biosensor based on microring cavities in Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI) that fits in an area below 10x10mum(2), and uses the avidin/biotin high affinity couple to demonstrate good repeatability and detection of protein concentrations down to 10ng/ml.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the performance of photonic wires and photonic-crystal waveguides for photonic integration in silicon-on-insulator (SiOI) circuits.
